Kelvy Enrrique

Kelvy, 27, lives in south Honduras with his wife who backs him up in his work and with his commitments. He’s been working for 8 years. His barber shop is located in a strategic spot where passersby are many because it’s downtown on the main street.

Kelvy needs the loan to buy face cream, gels, hair clippers, a barber chair and face foam. He hopes that the impact of the loan will be more customers every day since his shop will be well-equipped to provide good customer service and to meet their needs.

Kelvy’s future plan is to make the business grow expanding to other parts of the city where he lives thus generating good income to have a better quality of life.
